"The Scientific method refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. A scientific method consists of the collection of data through observation and experimentation, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses. Animal Science and animal agriculture have played an important role. Veterinary science broadly represents the study of domesticated and wild animal welfare, including the treatment of injuries and the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease. All scientists look at the world and try to understand how things work They make careful observations and conduct research about a question. Different areas of science use a number of different approaches. The present book tries to describe scientific approaches to assessing the state of being of agricultural animals."
